Web Design

The 5 Stones Media philosophy is that websites should be accessible to even the smallest of businesses or organizations. They should be affordable and scalable, while not compromising on style and technological sophistication.

We also believe that both the owner and the web designer should hold the keys to the site—an attitude most web developers don’t embrace. 5 Stones Media actually encourages site owners to learn how to maintain their own website, while offering maintenance services by the hour whenever the need arises.

While traditional html coding is part of our arsenal of tools, 5 Stones mostly builds websites using content management systems that allow for easy updates and expansion. Expanding features is as simple as adding a module or a plug-in. For example, a retailer can establish a web presence now and add features such as a shopping cart, forum, blog, or video whenever he or she is ready to expand.

Basic Search Engine Optimization (SEO) is standard on a 5 Stones Media website. SEO should never be an afterthought but rather integrated into the website with every step of the build process. Your 5 Stones Media website will be another voice in the community shouting your praises—SEO is the megaphone.
